APOEL FC announces extraordinary general meeting for investment deal approval
APOEL FC President Charis Fotiou has announced the scheduling of an extraordinary general meeting for shareholders, to be held on December 1, 2026, at the Pavillion Hall in Nicosia. This meeting follows the club's centenary celebrations and a 3-1 victory against Aris. The primary objective of the session is to present and secure approval for a tripartite commercial agreement involving the APOEL Association, the company, and the newly formed entity, APOEL 1926 Football Ltd.
The proposed deal aims to formalize a strategic partnership with an investment group led by Savvas Liasis. The agreement outlines the transfer of specific club assets and the assumption of financial responsibilities for existing liabilities by the new entity. Additionally, the proposal includes the creation of a special control share valued at one euro, which would grant the new investment vehicle specific consent rights over major corporate decisions. Fotiou stated that his primary motivation throughout the process has been the financial salvation of the club, noting that the board is currently in an advanced and optimistic stage regarding these negotiations.
The shareholders will gather at 18:00 to vote on the implementation of these measures and proposed amendments to the corporate statutes. The announcement serves as a critical milestone for the club's administrative future as it looks to transition toward a new ownership model.
